you can put the following parameters in your config file:
(common options)
-hvm = true|false -- specify if it's an hvm guest
-paused = true|false -- specify if the domain start paused
-startup = started|paused|shutdown|restore <file> -- specify what to do with the domain at startup of xenvm, supersed the previous option
-debug = true|false -- logs all operations to /tmp/xenvm-debug-%uuid
-uuid = uuidstring -- specify the domain uuid (default to autogenerating one)
-on_crash = preserve|reboot|destroy -- specify the action to be taken after notifying a crash
-on_halt = preserve|reboot|destroy -- specify the action to be taken after notifying a halt
-on_reboot = preserve|reboot|destroy -- specify the action to be taken after notifying a reboot
-kernel = string -- specify where to find the kernel to boot
- you can leave that empty for hvm, it will default
- to hvmloader
-memory = int -- specify the memory given to the guest in megabytes
-vcpus = int -- number of vcpus available to the guest
-
-disk = physpath:phystype:virtpath:mode:devtype
- -> physpath = path to the physical device (/dev/vg/test)
- -> phystype = phy | qcow | aio | file | vhd
- -> virtpath = hd(a-d) | sd(a-.) | xvd(a-p)
- -> mode = r | w
- -> devtype = cdrom | disk
-
-nic = comma,separated,key,value,pair
-
- key supported : bridge and mac
- leaving empty configuration string after the first equal will
- create default values.
-
- example:
- "nic = bridge=xen-br0,mac=ab:de:fe:dc:ba:ab"
- "nic = mac=ab:de:fe:dc:ba:ab"
- "nic = "
-vif = synonym to previous option
-pci = devid,domain:bus:device.function -- specify a pci device
-
-serial = dev -- redirect serial to device or network tcp:ip:port
- example:
- "serial = pty"
- "serial = tcp:1.2.3.4:1234"
